UKS2 – Science

Today, the children participated in two different activities to further their understanding of life cycles; and the common observable characteristics and based on similarities and differences of plants.

Firstly, they used the library books and their knowledge about life cycles to gather information about how different plants and animals reproduce. Using this, they created their own pictorial representations of how a specific animal reproduced. Following this, they presented their work confidently to the class.

Secondly, using our surrounding natural environment, the children used an app on the iPads to discover the observable characteristics of plants. They created their own flow chart so that someone else could guess which plant they had identified based on its key features.
